CYLINDRACEOUS

PRONUNCIATION: (sil-in-DRAY-shuhs)

MEANING: adjective: Resembling a cylinder.

ETYMOLOGY: From Latin cylindrus, from Greek kylindros, from kylindein (to roll). Earliest documented use: 1676.

NOTES: Something cylindraceous rolls into your life like a can of soup: efficient, symmetrical, and always ready to store something. The word shows up in botany too, describing tube-shaped structures like flower stalks or plant stems. So if someone says you have a cylindraceous head, they might mean you’re well-rounded, at least vertically.
